To solve this problem, we need to compute the derivative of the given function:

\[
f(x) = \sqrt{\frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}}}
\]

### Step 1: Rewriting the function
We can rewrite the square root as a power of \( \frac{1}{2} \):

\[
f(x) = \left( \frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}} \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}
\]

### Step 2: Applying the Chain Rule and Quotient Rule
Let’s differentiate the function using the chain rule and quotient rule. First, define:

\[
g(x) = \frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}}
\]

We differentiate the outer part first, treating \( g(x)^{1/2} \) as a composition of functions. The derivative of \( g(x)^{1/2} \) is:

\[
\frac{d}{dx} g(x)^{1/2} = \frac{1}{2} g(x)^{-\frac{1}{2}} \cdot g'(x)
\]

### Step 3: Derivative of \( g(x) \)
Now, we need to differentiate \( g(x) = \frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}} \) using the quotient rule:

\[
g'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \left( \frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}} \right)
\]

Using the quotient rule:

\[
g'(x) = \frac{\left[ 5(x+3)^4 \cdot e^{x-2} \cdot x^3 - (x+3)^5 \cdot (3x^2 e^{x-2} + x^3 e^{x-2}) \right]}{(x^3 e^{x-2})^2}
\]

### Step 4: Simplification
After simplifying, the expression matches with the form presented in option **b**:

\[
f'(x) = \left( \frac{(x+3)^5}{x^3 e^{x-2}} \right)^{1/2} \times \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{1}{x+3}
\]

Thus, the correct answer is **option d**.
